One month on no closer to a result, i have spoken to landrover australia who where as helpful as they could be over the phone.Thousands of dollars spent on what our neighbours call the giant letterbox , totally deflated. Last advice was it could have been the brake light bulbs (Narva bulbs are not suited to late model landrovers??????) As it turned out this was not the case and if so how good would it be if you were of road and your car decided to lower itself due to a faulty bulb.Does have me wondering about the four star safety rating , half way across a river with your family in the car !!!!!!!!!! One saving grace is my 98 defender has now managed to tow the disco on several occasions (using a car trailer) but would be asking a bit much of her to cross the ranges to gain some assistance.Sighning of as deflated, broke and a little heart broken,But as we say in the bush there is an up side to a down side,,WE happen to have the flashest letter box in town . ANY ADVICE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.
